set forth, DR.. McGlynn represented
his case as that of a man who had been SEN

clusion and that he would be snubbed and
insulted by the Propaganda.
He characterized the church in Rome as
"a Romish machine" and concluded as fol-

WASHINGTON POINTERS.
Assembling of the Democratic Lead
ers at the Capital.

WASHINGTON, June 80 The Star tonight
says; The presence of SO many prominent
Democrats in Washington just now seems
to lend color TO the rumor that there is to be
a conference with regard to the party policy,
the revenue reduction, etc. Among the
leading Democrats now here are Senators
Harris, Ransom, Cockrell, German, Brown,
Call and Pugh, and Jones of Arkansas Rep
reSentatives McCreary, Holman, Wilson of
West Virginia, Crisp and Gov Knott of
Kentucky. There are many others here,
and it is said that Speaker Carlisle will ar
rive soon.
But FEW NAVAL FLAGS NOW HELD.
The recent controversy over the captured
battle flags has caused many inquiries as to
the disposition made of the naval flags cap
tured during the late civil war. 1t is
learned at the Navy Department that the
most of the flags captured were turned over
to the Naval Academy, and are now on
exhibition there, together with the flags
captured in other wars. The Confederate
naval flags captured are but few in number
and an accidental fire in the old Navy De-
partment building, several years ago, de-
stroyed some of them.
BEFORE THE INTERSTATE COMMISSION.
The Interstate Commerce Commission
spent the day hearing the arguments of
counsel on the complaint of the Burton Live
Stock Car Company against sundry rail-
roads. Gen. Butler spoke twice at consider
able length for the complainant and Messrs.
Writ Dexter, John c. Green, John s. Blair
and Judge Shellabarger represented the
railroads. The argument was interspersed
with good deal of personal sparring be-
tween Gen. Butler and Messrs. Dexter and
Green. The railroad counsel held that the
case was practically an advertisement, and
was intended to be an offer to establish the
value of the patent controlled by the car
company.
